Miles and miles of coral reef, dozens of explorable shipwrecks, and plenty of marine life to observe…what’s not to love about Key West diving? We’re blessed with North America’s only living coral reef and the abundancy of sea life that exists around this incredible ecosystem. Key West diving makes this tiny island a true paradise, if you ask any diver!

And now, Key West diving is even more exciting because there’s the newest artificial reef, the USS Vandenberg. Sunk in May 2009, this 327 foot ship sits in 130 feet of water six miles south of Key West. All the dive companies in town now feature Vandenberg dive trips – book online for better deals and discounts.

If you’re new to diving, then you can opt for a resort course. Learn the basics of diving in a day, and you can be out on the reef exploring the amazing underwater world in no time! The marine world and its incredibly beautiful creatures are not to be missed – imagine yourself on vacation in Key West, exploring a whole new world! Sea turtles, rays, schools of tropical fish, curious and harmless barracuda, eels, and the occasional pelagic fish like mackerel will make appearances on the reef or wrecks frequented by Key West diving boats.

From complete beginners to advanced technical divers, Key West diving has something for everyone. Some of the shipwrecks are in deep water with strong currents, like the Curb Wreck. Curb is 180 feet down, so only advanced divers can attempt this wreck. The Vandenberg is also deep, but even if you can’t go that deep, you can still enjoy this new artificial reef. The satellite towers come up to 50 feet from the surface so even snorkelers can see them when the visibility is good.
